Stories about convicted murderers really shouldn’t be this amusing. But the unusual situation faced by triple-killer Kon Georgiou in Goulburn Supermax really tickled Daily Telegraph readers.

But the unusual situation faced by triple-killer Kon Georgiou in Goulburn Supermax really tickled Daily Telegraph readers.
The former Rebels bikie went on hunger strike in an attempt to keep hold of the phone he had illegally smuggled into prison and was hiding internally.
The object was detected in his bottom by guards during a routine scan and eventually after 12 days of close monitoring, nature won out on Tuesday.
Georgiou was jailed in 2003 for shooting dead three members of the Bandido bikie gang in the Blackmarket nightclub.
He was caught using phones in jail before and in 2010 was rumbled using one to update 150 friends on Facebook.
His plight has been read by thousands and 48 people felt moved to comment on the story, with a further 281 left on the Facebook post.
And Patricia, for one, enjoyed some of the ‘wit’ on display.
She wrote ‘Thanks for all the clever comments ... brightened up our day’
So we thought it might be fun to reprise some of the best.
